A Bit of Butter
Betty returns to star in a famous but tricky tongue twister about a bit of bitter butter. This twists the brain almost as much as it does the tongue.
Betty bought a bit of butter but the bit of butter Betty bought was bitter so Betty bought a better bit of butter and the batter was better

Hello
Jenny
Thank you for your for this excellent twister
I don’t know ‘How Much Wood Could a Wood Chuck Chuck, if a wood Chuck could Chuck Wood, but due to the stresses of the line, it requires you to make the following combined consonant speech sounds:
‘ch’ as in pronounced ‘ch’ on the word chuck and the same for ‘ch’ at the end of the word much.
‘w’ sounds on the word ‘wood’ and ‘ck’ at the end of the word chuck.
All the twisters on on the Storynory Twister podcast, mark consonant sound thanks for listening.
Bye Bye
N*
How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood in the woods?

Bertie you see I’m already used to another butter twister:
Betty Botter bought a bit of butter.
But she said the butter’s bitter if I put it in my batter that would make my batter bitter.
So Betty Botter bought a bit of better butter and she put in her batter and the batter was not bitter.
So t’was betterBetty Botter bought a bit of better butter. So I find your one hard

LisaM – Well spotted, I’ve added in the missing “bit of” to the page.
The version I know is: “Betty bought a bit of butter for her batter, but the bit of butter made her batter bitter. So Betty bought a bit of better butter for her bitter batter and the bit of better butter made her bitter batter better!
I like the tongue twister because I can listen to the oral.
I like this one, but Natasha says it differently than it’s worded here. Oops. :)
lol so funny story i like it. hahahahah
